ook people , thing is about tabs is that they are relative to how you hold your guitar, this one is the correct tabs for the song of time but if you flip your guitar over and play it from higher to lower instead it plays the lost woods song. it works both ways, just depends how you hold your guitar, left handed or right handed. or how you string it. the lower case e symbolizes the higher string and the upper case E symbolizes the deeper string. so stop complaining and just use common sense, saw this once and realized it can be played as the song of time of the lost woods theme simply by turning it upside down

meh.....im using the higher up part of riverofblood's bass tab and the endjust doesnt sound right...i havent heard the song for awhile so i might be wrong just maybe im just getting the tempo wrong... just if u could check it and make sure make me happier

No, Anonymous is mistaken. That tab is correct. Though I would put the tab up an octave. Don't forget that the guitar sounds 1 octave below it's written notes. Even though if you played the tab on the piano both the guitar and the piano would appear to play the same notes, the guitar voices one octave below it. For exmample, play middle C on a piano and then the equivalent C on the guitar. Going by written notes it would be 4th string 3rd fret but in actuality it is 2nd string 1st fret. Just something to be aware of when transcribing for the guitar.

Good tab, sound quite good, i don't really care if it is really the same octave or whatever... the song is similar to what i know, and help me to improve my skill (i'm playing guitar for my 3rd week, don't have a teacher).

I don't know what you guys are talking about. there is nothing wrong with this tab. Also, Maranda's is good too. It is the tabs for the full temple of time music. Trust me, my friend and I are LoZ addicts. the tabs are right.

Most of you are just placing either exactly the same frets, spaced differently, or the same notes on different frets.

Also, I think it sounds better on a lower fret. As I remember it (haven't touched the game in a while however), it's pretty deep. Not when you're playing it in the ocarina, but when you're hearing it in the temple.

Can I please explain something? This tab is "the song of time" just in a lower version, but it is atually called "The temple of Time" because that song is played in the temple. Therefore I'd suggest you changing the name of the song + adding the ending to please all these trolls commenting irrelevant hate-comment.

god, that argument was funny to read.
But in all honesty, this is the song of time. It's probably the easiest version to play so far.
In regular tabs, the High E string is always on top, with low E string on the bottom. Flip it around, the low E is on top.
And to the argument earlier, Lost Woods goes like this:
